In honor of Singapore’s 60th year of independence, the government is launching a special benefit—SG60 Vouchers—providing eligible citizens with up to $800 in spending support. The initiative is both a celebration of national progress and a practical way to help households manage day-to-day expenses.
Depending on their age, eligible citizens will receive either $600 or $800 worth of vouchers, which can be redeemed at heartland stores and supermarkets across the country.
Who Is Eligible to Receive the SG60 Vouchers?
Eligibility is based on age and citizenship. Anyone who is:
-
A Singapore citizen, and
-
Born in 2004 or earlier (turning 21 or older in 2025)
Will receive:
-
$600 if aged 21 to 59
-
$800 if aged 60 and above (born in 1965 or earlier)
This tiered structure ensures additional support for seniors, who typically face more financial challenges.
Voucher Distribution Timeline: When and How to Claim
Distribution starts in July 2025, following a staggered rollout:
-
Seniors aged 60 and above can claim their vouchers in early July
